Chapter Forty-Eight

Wen Fu explained embarrassedly: "The young ladies in the family are injured, the masters are not in a good mood, and it is inevitable that the subordinates will be cautious. ”

Xu Qiyuan's face was kind, and there was a little self-blame on his face, which gave Wenfu a little favor. couldn't help but say: "Young Master Cousin, let's come back another day, the young ladies are recuperating from their injuries, and I'm afraid that Madame won't be in the mood to greet you." ”

Xu Qiyuan smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your kindness, I'm afraid that things will change over time." ”

Wen Fu muttered in his heart, what else can happen if he has already withdrawn from the marriage, he was shocked in his heart, the divorce was handled by the master, the young master and the fourth lady were childhood sweethearts, and they had already had feelings, and they might not be able to withdraw from this marriage, thinking of this, they were more respectful on their faces.

Xu Qiyuan waited in the small living room of the main house for a long time, Mrs. Xu came to her heart, with a strong smell of medicine on her body, her face was tired, she saw her nephew, and greeted her lightly.

After all, blood is thicker than water, Mrs. Xu couldn't bear it, and said softly: "Your uncle is just afraid that Ju'er won't be able to stand so many rules when she marries, and you can't bear to let Ju'er suffer." ”

Xu Qiyuan said in his heart, forbearance, how can he not bear it, but he said: "Where does my aunt start with this, the rules of the Xu family have always been against her daughter, how have you ever been to her daughter-in-law, my mother loves her cousin very much, she must be maintained everywhere, the little nephew's heart for her cousin, after so many years, my aunt still doesn't understand?" My cousin got married, so why bother? Speaking of which, I secretly said that I was lucky, but fortunately, I have done enough faΓ§ade work over the years.

Mrs. Xu's face showed hesitation, and Xu Qiyuan immediately struck while the iron was hot, "My cousin has been noble since she was a child, how can ordinary small families provide for her, if she marries into a wealthy family in Beppu, will my aunt rest assured?" ”

Mrs. Xu was moved by him, sighed, and said, "It is very difficult to change what your uncle decides, so you should give up." ”

Xu Qiyuan said unusually firmly: "The little nephew went to ask his uncle until he agreed." ”

Seeing that he was so resolute, Mrs. Xu couldn't bear to touch his heart, and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see your uncle and see if you can convince him." ”

The ladies and wives went to the wing room to take a break after lunch, Wen Zhu stared at the maids and boiled the medicine, and personally held it to the front of the sisters' bed, the twins were bitter and refused to drink, Wen Zhu coaxed softly, made a promise, and told a good story to compensate them.

Wen Zhu sat on the Hu bed, first told a paragraph of "The Legend of the West Chamber", several younger sisters were interested in Yanshan, and then changed to "Journey to the West", and immediately became more excited than the other, especially the twins and Wen Ju, the self-proclaimed Monkey King and the Great Sage, but it sounded like Sun Wukong had a stutter.

is talking about Sun Wukong's drunken smoke, hiding in the Laojun furnace to steal the pill, the Wen Fu family came, and the master wanted to see the third lady.

The twins and Wen Ju scratched their ears and cheeks anxiously, which was quite a bit monkey-like, and Wen Xiaoju also said with a dissatisfied face, "It seems that Daddy hasn't learned a lesson for a long time, so let's ignore Daddy for three days this time." ”

One of the twins said, "How can three days be enough?" "At least seven days."

Wen Ju on the side nodded again and again, and added: "Tell the maids to block it, so don't even see him." ”

Wen Zhu was funny in his heart, these sisters couldn't move, and there were so many ghosts, and the whole person was all right. After Xu Xiao, the younger sisters quickly returned, went to the wing room to greet a few mothers, and saw that they were going to take care of the younger sisters, so they were relieved to follow the Wen Fu family to see the article.

From a distance, I saw a young man who had never met before wearing a sapphire blue satin robe, and as Mrs. Xu walked all the way, he avoided the fork in the road, and the Wen Fu family whispered: "That is the young master of the Xu Mansion, probably for the fourth lady's resignation." ”

Wen Zhu raised his eyes and saw that Xu Qiyuan was born with a baby face, smiled before speaking, very pleasing, and there were five or six points of resemblance to Wen Ju between his eyebrows, and he couldn't help but move in his heart, cousin and cousin, close relatives and marriage, how could he forget this stubble, and secretly scolded himself for being confused, fortunately, the article was wise, and he had already withdrawn from his family.

Seeing that they were also going to the article study, he deliberately took a few steps behind, waved his hand, and ordered the Wen Fu family to go to work, and when Mrs. Xu entered the article study, Fang Xing walked outside the door and stood quietly, but he had the intention of eavesdropping.

The article sat at the back of the desk, with an account book spread out on the table, and there was still a stack of account books next to it.

Mrs. Xu sat down opposite him, Xu Qiyuan stood aside, and Mrs. Xu begged: "Master, let's consider the marriage of the four girls again." Over the years, during the New Year's holidays, Ju'er's birthday, how many things have Yuan Yuan sent, which one of them has not been painstakingly scavenged? ”

The article was unmoved, and said kindly: "Yuan Yuan, how much did those things cost you, and my uncle compensated you three times." ”

Mrs. Xu was very angry, "What about poetry? How many poems did Yuan Yuan write for Ju'er? Have you ever written a poem to which lady or wife for so many years? ”

The article was bored, and he suddenly said: "I'll invite thirty or fifty sour and rotten talents to make hundreds of poems for you." ”

Mrs. Xu turned her face away in annoyance, the article was triumphant, but she saw Xu Qiyuan and said indifferently: "My nephew is here to say goodbye to my uncle today." ”

The article was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "That's fine, just go out and relax." Then he said: "The cost of the journey will be paid by my uncle." ”

Xu Qiyuan was calm and light, and said slowly: "That troublesome uncle built a temple, and the little nephew has decided to become a monk." ”

Several people in and outside the door were shocked, Mrs. Xu was shocked, and the article couldn't help but be moved, Xu Qiyuan said in a deep voice: "If my uncle insists on refusing to marry my cousin into Xu's mansion, there is no love in this red dust, and my little nephew will cut his hair and become a monk, and never step out of the temple." ”

Mrs. Xu stood up abruptly and said angrily: "What about your father and mother?" The Xu family is such a lone seedling as you, do you want to live for a long time? ”

Xu Qiyuan smiled lightly, saw through the world with a pair of eyes, and had a bit of the dusty temperament of a master outside the world, and said lightly: "If Wen Ju is not his wife, Xu Qiyuan will never marry another person in this life, what is the difference between him and a monk?" ”

The article took a long breath, but he was already moved by him, and just as he was about to speak, the door of the study was pushed open suddenly, Wen Zhu looked solemn, and said coldly: "No." ”

Seeing that all three people in the room were looking at her, Wen Zhu said coldly: "Don't marry the fourth sister to the cousin of the Xu family." ”

Xu Qiyuan hated a lot, and he was defeated, and he made a trip to bite the gold halfway, but his face was grief-stricken, thinking that the daughter of the Wen Mansion who had not yet come out of the cabinet was only Miss Wen San, who was older than Wen Ju, and said: "Why did the third cousin say this? ”

Wen Zhu turned a few thoughts in his heart, saying that no one can be trusted if a close relative marries and is easy to give birth to a deformed child, and now he has to gamble on the temper of the article.
